View of the day-Another vote for auto steer...Marilyn spent a lot of time picking up these 6 ft swaths that were left after everyone had passed.

Earliest day yet...started shortly after 9am, so with no dew and a bit of wind, the day was holding a lot of promise. By the time we got to the field and finished topping of the fuel in the combine, the other three were already making dust...lots of it.

Al had a busy day hauling to the Parrish & Heimbecker elevator at Langbank. For a Canadian elevator, he was pretty impressed...they cleaned corners, asked before cracking the big back door open and even changed the jug on their water dispenser for him when it was empty.

Marilyn went up the field and back...over and over and over...a nice full mile run and yet another vote for auto steer. There were some clouds that were threatening to dump for most of the afternoon, but a few sprinkles to make a mess on the dusty windows, were all that fell.

Until around 6:30pm. The sun was even shining as it started to rain...then it was official. Time to shut it down. It was running off the header.

Hopefully not enough to hold us up tomorrow...
